Barca takes a dig at Leo Messi over snub

Barcelona shared that Argentinean superstar Leo Messi didn’t return to the club because he wanted to play in a championship with fewer demands.

Lionel Messi, whose deal with PSG expires at the end of the month, shared yesterday that he will join MLS and Inter Miami and not go back to the Catalan team because he doesn’t want to wait anymore to see if he will be able to be registered and play in La Liga.

The Spanish club put a statement that definitely took a swipe at Leo.

“President Laporta accepted and honored Leo’s choice to want to compete in a championship with fewer demands, far away from the spotlight and the pressure he has been subject to in the last seasons.”
